The event is considered by many to open the awards season and will be staged on 29 November (10).

Acclaimed movie Winter's Bone leads the pack with three nominations for Best Feature, Breakthrough Actor (Jennifer Lawrence) and Best Ensemble Performance, while The Kids Are All Right and Tiny Furniture both receive two nominations.

A total of 26 films were nominated across six competitive categories for Best Feature, Best Documentary, Breakthrough Director, Breakthrough Actor, Best Ensemble Performance and Best Film Not Playing at a Theatre Near You.

In addition to the competitive awards, Robert Duvall, Hilary Swank, director Darren Aronofsky, and movie mogul James Schamus will each be presented with a career tribute.

Last year's (09) Best Feature winner, The Hurt Locker, went on to win the Oscar's Best Picture prize.
